One day I was walking home
When I heard a sound like a devils trombone
I looked up and I couldn’t believe it
Right there where my face just was
Were the headlights of the cross-town bus
But I passed out before I even perceived it
A voice said, «Walk towards the light»
But I didn’t
I wanna believe in something bigger than me
I wanna believe in some big mystery
I wanna believe in something I cannot see
I wanna believe in the Son and the Holy Ghost
But I only believe in my baby
I woke up in a body cast
The nurse said that a week had passed
And don’t move, someone wants to say hi
You smiled at me and said
«Why did the chicken cross the road?»
But I’m not sure you were makin' a joke
And if you were, I think I was the punch line
They say
God works in mysterious ways
And this time
I wanna believe in something bigger than me
I wanna believe in some big mystery
I wanna believe in something I cannot see
I wanna believe in the Son and the Holy Ghost
But I only believe in my baby, yeah, my baby
My girl made the Devil himself a believer
I wanna believe in something bigger than me
I wanna believe in some big mystery
I wanna believe in something I cannot see
I wanna believe in the Son and the Holy Ghost
But I only believe in my baby, in my baby
Whoa, in my baby
